As a product of the Catholic school system and a child raised in a Baptist household, when McConnaughey is talking about the ppl at church, shit, some of the best ppl I know are atheists or just don't give a shit about religion or gods. Most of the worst ppl I've ever met are the most vile kind of hypocrite, if nothing else than how they act based on what they claim to believe and serve/worship. I mean he's out of line and rude as hell about it....but he ain't exactly alllll the way wrong. Just my personal opinion/potential hot take.
Im also biased since I made a similar argument my sophomore yr of high school to the nun teaching and before she stormed out of the class in a rage and a huff, she damned me to hell(fave life memory of all time). So I was a little... excited to hear him say these things πππ

It's taken me about 5 days to get through this, but I love your commentary on these two episodes! Especially at the end when things speed up you're fully into it π

(i really donβt think this is a spoiler) thereβs some real connections to season four in that last episode thatβs really cool to see in retrospect. besides the first season, the fourth is my favorite.

"Dawg, respectfully, I don't give a fuck" π€£
Also the look he gives Rust when he says that it has to be hard to listen to someone talking crazy at you all the damn time.. I died

To add to the comparison between Rust and Marty (which you astutely have been marking)...did you notice when drunken Marty screeches into his side-chick's apartment parking lot, he plows right over a pink child's bicycle? Especially gross when we know what happened to Rust's daughter.

I like to think Hannibal and True Detective S1 exist in the same universe.

I like what you said, Raymond (your specific example about religion used wrongly) as it ties in exactly to what Rust is saying (Rust is saying a lot of things in episode 3, but particularly when he is saying "one monkey looked at the sun", etc.). Religious orders can't be questioned by design. As you said, this doesn't make religion 'bad'...but the capacity for potential abuse is limitless.

I believe that ending scene is all one continuous shot.
Matthew McConaughey is incredible in this. I have to check out Interstellar.
Really really enjoyed this particular reaction, FT! I love when you get real fiery -- more of that, pls, when you're feeling it. π₯
